Academic Writing Skills for Claude Code

中文版

This collection of skills grew out of my day-to-day paper-writing workflow and has been iteratively refined over time. It may still have shortcomings or rough edges; if needed, please fork it and adapt it yourself.

I have recently been writing my dissertation, so I will keep improving latex-thesis-zh based on actual usage. Note: paper-audit review reports are for reference only; please verify and evaluate them yourself.

Post-writing polish and validation for academic papers: format checks, bibliography search and verification, grammar analysis, de-AI editing, and experiment narrative review. Focused on improving existing drafts, not writing papers from scratch.

Recommended models: Claude Opus 4.6/fable5 · GPT 5.6 Sol Max/Xhigh · Gemini 3.1 PRO

Recommended platforms: Claude Code · Codex

Install

Install the repository with skills:

npx skills add bahayonghang/academic-writing-skills

Then open Claude Code or Codex in your manuscript project and ask for the task in natural language. The root README is only a routing guide; the authoritative usage details live in each SKILL.md file and in the docs site.

Choose A Skill

Skill Use When Main Inputs Source Of Truth
cover-letter Generate, optimize, align-check, preflight, or journal-fit-check a submission cover letter against an existing LaTeX manuscript. .tex, optional .md or .tex letter draft cover-letter/SKILL.md
paper-audit Run reviewer-style critique, submission gates, blocker triage, revision roadmaps, journal-style reports, or re-audits. .tex, .typ, .pdf paper-audit/SKILL.md
latex-paper-en Work on existing English LaTeX conference or journal papers: compile, formatting, grammar, logic, sections, references, figures, tables, pseudocode, title, translation, or de-AI polish. .tex latex-paper-en/SKILL.md
latex-thesis-zh Work on existing Chinese LaTeX theses: compile diagnostics, GB/T 7714 references, university templates, chapter structure, terminology, logic, abstracts, titles, tables, and de-AI polish. .tex latex-thesis-zh/SKILL.md
typst-paper Work on existing English or Chinese Typst manuscripts: compile/export diagnostics, venue formatting, references, grammar, logic, tables, pseudocode, title, translation, or de-AI polish. .typ typst-paper/SKILL.md
bib-search-citation Search, filter, preview, export, or create LaTeX/Typst citation snippets from a local BibTeX or BibLaTeX library. .bib bib-search-citation/SKILL.md

Use the format-specific writing skills when you want source edits or polish. Use paper-audit when you want reviewer-style diagnosis without rewriting the source. Use bib-search-citation when the target is the bibliography library itself.

Typical Prompts

Compile my English LaTeX paper with latexmk and explain the first blocking error.
Check the introduction for logic gaps, citation stacking, and AI-like phrasing.
Run a paper-audit gate on main.tex and separate blockers from polish issues.
Search references.bib for recent Mamba forecasting papers with code and return LaTeX and Typst citation snippets.
Align-check this cover letter against main.tex and report unsupported claims only.

Safety And Outputs

  • The skills are for improving and validating existing academic material. They should not invent experiments, citations, policies, or unsupported claims.
  • Citation keys, DOI, arXiv IDs, URLs, and local .bib matches are provenance fields, not proof that a paper supports a manuscript claim.
  • Online checks are optional. When current venue rules or external metadata matter, verify them from the original source before treating them as binding.
  • Source-editing suggestions should preserve LaTeX and Typst syntax and mark required evidence as pending instead of filling it in.
  • Audit and helper-script outputs may be JSON, Markdown reports, or diff-comment style findings with severity and priority.

Example finding shape:

% <MODULE> (Line <N>) [Severity: Critical|Major|Minor] [Priority: P0|P1|P2]: <Issue summary>
% Before: <original text>
% After:  <suggested text>
% Rationale: <brief explanation>
% [PENDING VERIFICATION]: <if evidence or metrics are required>

Requirements

  • Python 3.10+
  • uv for running the bundled Python helpers
  • TeX Live or MiKTeX with latexmk and chktex for LaTeX workflows
  • XeLaTeX plus CJK fonts for Chinese LaTeX documents
  • Typst CLI for Typst workflows
  • pdfplumber for PDF-oriented audit workflows
  • Node.js and npm or just only when building the docs site locally
